About North Star Events
Planning an event should be exciting, not overwhelming. At North Star Events, we take care of the logistics so you can focus on what matters most. No matter the occasion, we bring strategy, structure, and creativity to every event we manage.
Our Approach:
Structure Meets Strategy
Every event has a purpose, and we start by listening. We take the time to understand your goals, challenges, and vision, then build a strategic plan to bring it all to life. From vendor coordination to managing timelines, we handle the details so you don’t have to.
With experience in corporate and nonprofit events, we anticipate challenges before they arise, problem-solve on the fly, and adapt to last-minute changes—all while keeping the process smooth and stress-free.
Meet the Founder
North Star Events was founded by Saira Sufi, an event professional with years of experience managing large-scale corporate and nonprofit events. She holds a Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree in Political Science with a Minor in Women’s Studies. Saira also has an Event Management Certificate from The George Washington University and is known for her ability to bring structure and strategy to even the most complex events.
The name North Star Events is deeply personal. Saira’s late son, Hadi—whose name means "guide" in Arabic—was the inspiration behind the name. The North Star has long been a symbol of direction and reliability, qualities that define both Saira’s approach and the way Northstar Events serves its clients.
